Fill The Moment And Find Variety.

I Started My Career Giving A Clinic In Bad Acting In The Film, "the Silver Chalice," And Now I'm Playing A Crusty Old Man Who's An Animated Automobile [in "cars"]. That's A Creative Arc For You, Isn't It?

I Wasn't Running Toward The Theater But Running Away From The Sporting Goods Store. Of Course Now That I'm Selling Spaghetti Sauce (with Newman's Own), I Begin To Understand The Romance Of Business.. The Allure Of Being The Biggest Fish In The Pond And The Juice You Get From Beating Out Your Competitors.

I Think Transitions Are Never That Noticeable, But They Are Always On Their Way. It Has To Do With Distance And Accessibility. People Call It Mellowing, But I Think It's How Available You Are Toward Other People, Or How Much You Distance Yourself.

I Wasn't Driven To Acting By Any Inner Compulsion. I Was Running Away From The Sporting Goods Business.

You Can't Be As Old As I Am Without Waking Up With A Surprised Look On Your Face Every Morning.
